post your latest transmission lubricant change.

[Crispysea]

My mother was in town. Her ATF was dark brown, so I did a quick pump out.

2006 Kia Sedona, 124K miles.

4 quarts out (factory?), 4 quarts Valvoline Multi-Vehicle Import in.

She loves it; much quieter and smoother. Transmission was starting to whine.

1994 Acclaim v6 3spd auto.
pan drop,filter change and 4.5 qts of atf 4.
next o/c i'll siphon out a qt or two of fluid.

2016 Frontier 19,450 miles

I bought a case of Nissan Matic-S. I was able to get a little over 3.5 quarts to drain (~11 quart capacity). The fluid was a brownish red (mostly brown) at first and after 3 D&Fs it looks like ATF should. I'll do the next one at 50,000.

 

[4WD]

GMC - 4L60e
Plug only drained 3-1/2 quarts (on ramps and XG16 takes 5) … did that 6 months back …
... so topped off with 3 Castrol MVS + 10 ounces LubeGard Platinum …

2010 Ford Fusion 2.5L / 6F35 trans

OUT: Approximately 5.5 Quarts - Mostly Valvoline MaxLife (Last 2 drain/fills were 100% MaxLife). Dark red/purple colored.

IN: 1 Gal Valvoline MaxLife + 0.5qt Motorcraft Mercon LV + LubeGard Red.

2010 Volvo V70/TF80-SC- 80K, 3x D&F at 60K, with genuine Volvo , then
Just a drain and fill at 80K using Castrol Transmax Import Multi-Vehicle

 

[exranger06]

Can't remember which one I did last, but they were both pretty recent - 92 Honda Accord automatic - did a drain and fill - this car has no removable oil pan, just a drain plug. Drained out Valvoline Maxlife, refilled with more Maxlife. Takes about 2.5 quarts.

04 Honda CR-V manual - another drain and fill, since it's a manual. Drained out unknown fluid, possibly the factory fill. I bought the car earlier this year and have no maintenance history on it. Refilled with Genuine Honda Manual Transmission Fluid. Takes about 2.5 quarts

And this weekend I did a drain and fill on my Wheel Horse 312-8 garden tractor (8 speed manual trans) Drained out Valvoline SynPower 75w-90 gear oil, and refilled with more SynPower. Takes about 1.75 quarts

 

[The Critic]

Serviced a buddy’s 2016 Mercedes E350 sedan. 42k miles.

Maintenance schedule calls for 6/60m intervals but he agreed to having it done every 40k.

Out: factory fill (still looked dark blue)
In: 5L of ATF134FE from the dealer, MB filter/gasket/pan bolts from dealer. Changed out just over 50% of the total fluid.

Also did the rear diff oil. There was nothing on the magnets but the fluid was green and grey. Refilled with Fuchs Sintopoid FE 75w85.

 

[ofelas]

18 quarts of Schaeffer's 204SAT-ATF (including a quart to soak the clutches) with an NOS Mopar filter on a freshly home brewed transmission/TC about 500 miles back.

Drained & stored the 3000 mile old Amsoil ATF to pour back into the previous transmission after I work on the valve body & planetaries.

Actually the Ford Fusion 5 speed auto (like mine and yours) calls for FNR-5 ATF.

 

[The Critic]

2004 Lexus RX330, 145k

Out: Genuine Toyota T-IV. Full flush was done 21.5k ago, but fluid already looks nasty. When the last flush was done, the fluid was coffee.
In: Genuine Toyota T-IV, 13 qt flush.

M V would be the Mazda rating which is the same as FNR-5 for the Fusion. With all this said I have used M1 ATF for the life of my 2007 Fusion and this trans shifts great up and down. You most likely will be fine.
